When the $50 million renovation project at Via Christi Hospital St. Joseph is finished, the Wichita-area facility will be returning to its community hospital roots, according to an article on the Wichita Eagle website.
“Project Renewal” will bring back and expand Via Christi’s behavioral health services at St. Joseph and convert all of its patient rooms to private rooms.
“It’s not just a facelift from our standpoint,” said St. Joseph president Laurie Labarca. “It really drives down to good delivery of care that’s also innovative and meets community needs.”
The biggest part of the project is moving Via Christi’s outpatient and inpatient behavioral health services to St. Joseph. Most of those services — except a senior behavioral health unit — were moved from St. Joseph in 2001.
